I don’t think Josh realizes how he comes off. His mom seems to have always
been more of a friend to him, so he must be so used to talking to her like
a friend that he doesn’t understand how it must make her feel.?

I REALLY don’t understand why she allows her son to treat her like she is
not worth anything. She is his mother and deserves a ton of respect just
for that. It’s not good for her to allow him to not only disrespect her as
his mother but also as the strongest female influence he has. When I was a
teen, I was definitely disrespectful as many teens may be BUT my mother
also NEVER stopped correcting me on it and I am glad she did. It’s really
unappealing and sometimes it makes it hard to watch.
